What if the Avenger Titan was a retired bounty hunter from Blade Runner? Or the 890 Jump a guest star from The Fifth Element? Let’s match some iconic ships to the movies they spiritually belong in.
The ships in Star Citizen aren’t just transport — they’re characters. Each one tells a story through its design, utility, and reputation. Today, let’s have some fun matching ships to sci-fi movie vibes.
Avenger Titan – Blade Runner
With its noir aesthetic, utilitarian interior, and ex-cop origins, the Avenger Titan feels like something Rick Deckard would pilot through rainy neon skylines. It’s sleek, functional, and morally ambiguous.
Cutlass Black – Firefly / Serenity
Rough, rugged, and always a bit questionable. The Cutlass Black is your go-to for smuggling runs and pirate roleplay. Mal Reynolds would feel right at home.
890 Jump – The Fifth Element
Opulence, excess, and that giant glass lounge? The 890 is the cruise ship of the stars. Picture it hosting elite passengers in haute couture, sipping weird alien cocktails.
Vulture – Mad Max in Space
The Vulture is gritty, scavenger-core, and built for survival. It’s not pretty, but it gets the job done. Max Rockatansky meets SalvageTech.
Honorable Mentions:
- Gladius = Top Gun
- Carrack = Star Trek Voyager
- Prospector = The Expanse’s Rocinante (if it was broke)
